... and I've had hens in my life since I was about seven years old. About eleven years later and I'm still mad about them!
Over the years, I've raised two batches of cream Legbar chicks from eggs and rescued three ex-bats. I've also had one miracle hen that lived to about 8 years old! (She is dearly missed)
My current flock entails Poppy and Daisy (my two remaining cream legbars and sisters to each other) and three "newbies": Beatrice, Gretel and Dorothy. Beatrice and Gretel are the nosiest two girls ever and will peck literally anything in sight including the older hen's beaks (which they just let them do now) and Dorothy is a bit more timid but very lively and loves playing in the outdoors.
